I'd like to remove the bottom half of the newell post to allow the opening up of the area beneath the stairs..it extends from the ground floor right up to the landing, will this affect the structure of the staircase ? ..thanks in advance
If the post is there you can be slmost certain that it was put in to carry a load. No joinery contractor I know of would waste money on an unnecessarly long newel
Of course you could always cut it out and wait to see if the stairs started to creak and droop over the next 12 months.....
